Removing controller function name from URL in Codeigniter. Error when multiple controller

Question

Using CI how can I route to specific contoller with any method name. I have two controller : init and cms. Then in config.routes.php :

 $default_controller = "init";  //default controller
 $controller_exceptions = array('admin','forums');

 $route['default_controller'] = $default_controller;
 $route["^((?!\b".implode('\b|\b', $controller_exceptions)."\b).*)$"] = $default_controller.'/$1';
 $route['404_override'] = '';

 $route['backend'] = 'cms';
 $route['backend/(:any)'] = "cms/product";

When backend/product is typed I want it to route to backend/product. Again when backend/login is typed I want it to route to backend/login. That means what I need is $route['backend/anyMethodNameAfterbackend'] = "cms/anyMethodNameAfterbackend";

Instead of $route['backend/(:any)'] = "cms/product"; use $route['cms/(:any)'] = "cms/$1"; The result would be :

$route['backend'] = 'cms';
$route['backend/(:any)'] = "cms/$1";

Its not working. I did the same. Real path for login to my site is. localhost/c2c/index.php/cms. This has login form with action form_open('cms/login'). I typed localhost/c2c/backend then pages opens but when trying to login throws an 404 error.

Well then, try form_open(base_url().'cms/login') or form_open('/cms/login').

Still not working. When trying to login. Press login then my url becomes localhost/c2c/cms/login not localhost/c2c/backend/login

That would be the same. You have another problem, one that is not related to routing. If you change '/cms/login', to '/backend/login', the uri will be correct, but the page will display the same error. What does your cms controller look like?
